Story
On the 6th of June we are organising a charity fundraising
event for War Child.
The event
itself is to celebrate and promote Board Gaming, Model Painting and Game Design
with local adults, children and hobby enthusiasts.
Guests
will be exposed to a variety of different games and guided on how to play, from
card games and mainstream games to miniature based board games and strategy
games!
There
will be the opportunity to paint some of your favourite models and miniatures
and workshops to introduce some new skills!
There
will be workshops in board game design that inspire you to get involved and
show you how!
We will
celebrate everything that the hobby has to offer and inspire adults and
children to get involved. We want to see the community coming together,
connecting and inspiring children to develop some great skills in the process.
All the while we will be raising money for an inspiring cause:
Throughout
the world there are many children losing their families and futures as victims
of war. Perhaps they lose their homes, a parent, or both parents, or an entire
family. Children are sold off into under-age marriages and forcibly conscripted
as child soldiers. Both girls and boys are open to horrific abuses in their new
frightening circumstances. This often leads to a cycle of violence where the
children can become the perpetrators of violence for a new generation.
We want
to make a contribution to break that cycle, to relocate children with remaining
relatives or adoptive parents and provide education, peace and stability to
their lives. This helps break the cycle of violence and contributes to brighter
more peaceful futures for the children, their countries, their regions and the
whole world.
To make all of this happen:
- We need Donations!
- We need Volunteers!
- We need Guests!
